Final Legacy is progressing at an admittedly low level, and she saw off all bar the gambled upon Red Stripes at Southwell last week. Qaaraat served notice of a return to form at Wolverhampton latest (Encoded immediately behind) and we know from the not too distant past that he can do the business off this kind of handicap mark at Newcastle. However, we'll take our chance with Jim Goldie's colourful JEFFREY HARRIS who has more than enough ability to score if breaking from the stalls in a half proficient manner. Of the remainder, only the well handicapped Jan Van Hoof looks to be worthy of any serious thought or consideration.
